Our GMT400 Suburban 10.3L Big Block Build Begins! "Uncle George" Will Never Be The Same (632 BBC)

What happens here

With the transmission now only held by the bellhousing bolts, carefully lower it using the transmission jack. Maneuver the transmission out from under the vehicle, being mindful of its weight and any remaining drips of fluid. The video shows the transmission being lowered into a catch pan, indicating residual fluid may still be present. This particular transmission is identified as a GM Parts 350, which the creator notes has a leaky rear main seal, justifying its replacement.

Goal: Extract the transmission from the vehicle

Tools and materials

  • Large Drain Pan — Catching residual transmission fluid
  • Transmission Jack Husky — Lowering and moving the transmission
  • Transmission Fluid — Fluid leaking from the removed transmission
